GeoGebra construction
Steps
- Choose the circle of inversion so that its center is at the given point.
- Apply the inversion to both given circles.
- In the chosen inversion, the solution circles are mapped to the common tangents of the images of the two circles.
- Invert the found tangents back to obtain the solution circles.
- The problem has four solutions.
